 Burns Beach Road was cut shorter, joining with Joondalup Drive at a large roundabout a few hundred metres west of Wanneroo Road.At the same time the old stretch of Burns Beach Road alongside Joondalup Drive was renamed Drovers Place, and Burns Beach Road was also straightened out at Blue Mountain Drive.In the late 1990s, a large roundabout was also constructed to replace a stop-controlled intersection at Connolly Drive, in response to the growing suburban communities in Kinross and Currambine, and the heavier traffic.
